Trump Rules Out Sacking Pete Hegseth After Losing Midterm Polls
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday dismissed talk that he is preparing to replace War Secretary Pete Hegseth, while suggesting the Pentagon chief would be a popular choice for a Senate seat in Tennessee.
The remarks came despite suffering bruising midterm elections losses that the US president has blamed on the war against Iran.
Asked whether he was considering replacing Hegseth, Trump said: "No, I think he's doing a very good job."
